Louisiana woman says meth found inside her body not hers

July 3, 2024

A Louisiana woman allegedly found to have had methamphetamine inside her vagina claims she did not know where the drug came from, according to police.

A man called the West Monroe Police Department to report that while he was in the shower, his would-be girlfriend, Ashley Beth Rolland, 23, snagged more than $5,000 in cash and left his apartment. She was arrested soon thereafter on the theft charge.

According to reports, female correctional officer later searched Rolland and, inside of Rolland’s vagina, they discovered $6,233, along with “a clear plastic bag” containing approximately one gram of meth. Rolland had no problem acknowledging she was essentially a human ATM but denied knowing of the presence of the meth.

Rolland would ultimately give up on her “Where did that come from?!” defense and admit the drugs found in her body cavity did belong to her. For the theft and a reduced drug possession charge, she was sentenced to four months in the Ouachita Parish Correctional Center.
